Comment (by nickm):

 Sorry, I missed that in the documentation. That's what I get for focusing
 on the code.

 If we're okay with saying that connection-by-hostname is only matched by
 *, that's plausible.  But your code doesn't do that, I think.  In the
 patch you wrote, if I read it right, connection-by-hostname is matched by
 *, and by any other pattern that matches 0.0.0.0, which seems like a weird
 interface.  Can we make it so that only * matches?
